Last weekend Tim, Katie, and I had the opportunity to attend the Georgia Organics Conference in Savannah. If you are not familiar with the organization, Georgia Organics http://www.georgiaorganics.org/home.aspx is a non-profit organization which provides support for organic farmers. At the conference, a wide range of sessions were offered pertaining to raising livestock, soil makeup, marketing techniques, etc. In addition, farm tours were arranged to showcase unique and successful farms in the region. Not only was the conference informative but also a “farm group” bonding time. We tried local cuisine, went camping, and attended the movie premiere of GROW http://growmovie.blogspot.com/ featuring our very own Tim and Krista Showalter Ehst. All in all it was a nice break from the business of early farm season.
